Accounts and the Cash Account shall be retained by Purchaser and applied to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices owed by Seller and to any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder or under the Custodial Agreement and (iv) Purchaser may at any time on the Business Day following notice to Seller (which notice may be the notice given above of an Event of Default), (A) immediately sell, without demand or further notice of any kind, at a public or private sale and at such price or prices as Purchaser may deem satisfactory, any or all the Mortgage Loans and apply the proceeds thereof (net of any expenses of sale) to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder or under the Custodial Agreement or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Mortgage Loans, to give Seller credit for such Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing bid quotation from such a source, against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by Seller hereunder or under the Custodial Agreement, and in either case upon the determination and receipt by Purchaser of all such amounts owing by Seller (including, without limitation, any unpaid fees, expenses, legal fees and expenses of Purchaser’s counsel or other amounts owing to Purchaser under this Agreement, the Electronic Tracking Agreement or the Custodial Agreement), Purchaser shall transfer any remaining portion of the Mortgage Loans and proceeds thereof to either (1) Seller, if in Purchaser’s reasonable judgment Seller is legally entitled thereto, (2) such other entity as is in Purchaser’s reasonable judgment legally entitled thereto or (3) if Purchaser cannot determine in its judgment the entity entitled thereto, a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that Seller shall be liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Mortgage Loans and any amounts applied from the Custodial Account and the Cash Account are insufficient to pay all amounts to which Purchaser is entitled hereunder.
(b) If any Mortgage Loan becomes a Defective Mortgage Loan prior to the Repurchase Date, the Pass-Through Rate applicable to such Defective Mortgage Loan shall increase by the Incremental Pass-Through Rate, and Purchaser, at its election, may immediately accelerate the Scheduled Repurchase Date and require that Seller, upon receipt of such election, immediately repurchase such Defective Mortgage Loan by remitting to Purchaser (in immediately available funds in accordance with Purchaser’s Wire Instructions) the Repurchase Price for such Defective Mortgage Loan.
(c) If Seller fails to comply with its obligations in the manner described in Section 7(b) or under the Electronic Tracking Agreement or if the Purchaser delivers notice to Seller pursuant to Section 6(a) or 6(b) hereof Seller’s rights and obligations to interim service Mortgage Loans, as provided in this Agreement, shall terminate. If any such event occurs, Seller’s rights and obligations to service the Mortgage Loans, as provided in this Agreement, shall terminate immediately, without any further notice or action by Purchaser. Upon any such termination, Purchaser is hereby authorized and empowered to sell and transfer such rights to service the Mortgage Loans for such price and on such terms and conditions as Purchaser shall determine in its sole discretion. Seller does not have any right to and shall not attempt to sell or transfer the Servicing Rights or any rights incident thereto without the prior consent of the Purchaser, which may be withheld in Purchaser’s sole discretion. In the event of any servicing transfer, Seller shall perform all acts and take all action so (i) that the Mortgage Loans and all files and documents relating to such Mortgage Loans held by Seller, together with all escrow amounts relating to such Mortgage Loans, are delivered to a Successor Servicer, (ii) all

(d) Each Mortgage Loan required to be delivered to a Successor Servicer by Section 7(c) shall be delivered free of any Servicing Rights in favor of Seller and free of any title, interest, lien, encumbrance or claim of any kind of Seller, and Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered all files and documents relating to each Mortgage Loan held by Seller to a Successor Servicer. Seller shall promptly take such actions and furnish to Purchaser such documents that Purchaser deems necessary or appropriate to enable Purchaser to cure any defect in each such Mortgage Loan or to enforce such Mortgage Loans, as appropriate.

Section 8. Transfer of Mortgage Loan by Purchaser. Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, grant or assign a security interest in any Mortgage Loan sold by Seller hereunder and all rights of Purchaser under this Agreement, the Electronic Tracking Agreement and/or the Custodial Agreement, in respect of such Mortgage Loan to Assignee, subject only to an obligation on the part of Assignee to deliver each such Mortgage Loan to Purchaser to permit Purchaser or its designee to make delivery thereof to Seller on the Repurchase Date. It is anticipated that such assignment to Assignee will be made by Purchaser, and Seller hereby irrevocably consents to such assignment. No notice of such assignment shall be given by Purchaser to Seller. Assignment by Purchaser of the Mortgage Loans as provided in this Section 8 shall not release Purchaser from its obligations otherwise under this Agreement. Without limitation of the foregoing, an assignment of a Mortgage Loan to Assignee, as described in this Section 8, shall be effective upon delivery to Assignee of a Dry Submission Package.
Section 9. Record Title to Mortgage Loans; Intent of Parties; Security Interest.
(a) From and after the delivery of the related Submission Package, and subject to the remedies of Purchaser set forth in Section 7, Seller shall remain the named payee or endorsee of each Mortgage Note and the mortgage or assignee of record of each Mortgage (except with respect to a MERS Designated Mortgage Loan) in trust for the benefit of Purchaser, for the sole purpose of facilitating the servicing of such Mortgage Loan.
(b) Seller shall maintain a complete set of books and records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to reflect the ownership interest in each Mortgage Loan of Purchaser and with respect to each MERS Designated Mortgage Loan, Seller shall designate the Purchaser as the Investor and Interim Funder on the MERS® System.
(c) Purchaser and Seller confirm that the Transactions contemplated herein are intended to be sales of the Mortgage Loans by Seller to Purchaser rather than borrowings secured by the Mortgage Loans. In the event, for any reason, any Transaction is construed by any court or regulatory authority as a borrowing rather than as a sale, Seller and Purchaser intend that Purchaser or Assignee, as the case may be, shall have a perfected first priority security interest in the Collateral, free and clear of adverse claims. In such case, Seller shall be deemed to have hereby granted to Purchaser or Assignee, as the case may be, a first priority security interest in and lien upon the Collateral, free and clear of adverse claims. In such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, the Custodian shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of perfection of the security interest granted to Purchaser or Assignee, as the case may be, and Purchaser or Assignee, as the case may be, shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law. Seller shall, not later than the date of the first purchase of a Mortgage Loan by Purchaser under this Agreement, deliver to Purchaser a UCC-1 Financing Statement, executed by Seller, containing a description of collateral in the form attached hereto in Exhibit I.

FORM OF OPINION
UBS Warburg Real Estate Securities
0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000
Dear Sirs and Mesdames:
You have requested our opinion as counsel to Crescent Mortgage Services, Inc. a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Georgia (the “Seller”), with respect to certain matters in connection with that certain Amended and Restated Mortgage Loan Repurchase Agreement governing purchases and sales of certain Mortgage Loans, dated January 31, 2003 (the “Repurchase Agreement”), by and between Seller and UBS Warburg Real Estate Securities Inc. (the “Purchaser”). The Repurchase Agreement and the Custodial Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Governing Agreements.” Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Repurchase Agreement.
[We] [I] have examined the following documents:
1. the Repurchase Agreement;
2. unfiled copies of the financing statements listed on Schedule 1 (collectively, the “Financing Statements”) naming the Seller as Debtor and the Purchaser as Secured Party and describing the Mortgage Loans (as defined in the Repurchase Agreement) as to which security interests may be perfected by filing under the Uniform Commercial Code of the States listed on Schedule 1 (the “Filing Collateral”), which I understand will be filed in the filing offices listed on Schedule 1 (the “Filing Offices”);
3. the reports listed on Schedule 2 as to UCC financing statements (collectively, the “UCC Search Report”);
4. such other documents, records and papers as we have deemed necessary and relevant as a basis for this opinion.
To the extent [we] [I] have deemed necessary and proper, [we] [I] have relied upon the representations and warranties of the Seller contained in the Repurchase Agreement. [We] [I] have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to me [us] as originals, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons and the conformity to the originals of all documents.
Based upon the foregoing, it is [our] [my] opinion that:
1. The Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia and is qualified to transact business in, and is in good standing under, the laws of the [State of ].
U-1
2. The execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of the Governing Agreements to which it is a party, and the sales by the Seller and the pledge of the Mortgage Loans under the Repurchase Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Seller. Each of the Governing Agreements have been executed and delivered by the Seller and are legal, valid and binding agreements enforceable in accordance with their respective terms against the Seller, subject to bankruptcy laws and other similar laws of general application affecting rights of creditors and subject to the application of the rules of equity, including those respecting the availability of specific performance, none of which will materially interfere with the realization of the benefits provided thereunder or with the Purchaser’s purchase of the Mortgage Loans and/or security interest in the Mortgage Loans.
3. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, and no filing or registration with, any court or governmental agency or regulatory body is required on the part of the Seller for the execution, delivery or performance by the Seller of the Governing Agreements to which it is a party or for the sales by the Seller under the Repurchase Agreement or the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser and/or granting of a security interest to the Purchaser in the Mortgage Loans, pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement.
4. The execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Governing Agreements to which it is a party do not and will not (a) violate any provision of the Seller’s charter or by-laws, (b) violate any applicable law, rule or regulation, (c) violate any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority or agency or any arbitral award applicable to the Seller of which I [we] have knowledge (after due inquiry) or (d) result in a breach of, constitute a default under, require any consent under, or result in the acceleration or required prepayment of any indebtedness pursuant to the terms of, any agreement or instrument of which I have knowledge (after due inquiry) to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or (except for the Liens created pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any Property of the Seller pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.
5. There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best of [our] [my] knowledge, threatened against the Seller which, in [our] [my] judgment, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, would be reasonably likely to result in any material adverse change in the properties, business or financial condition, or prospects of the Seller or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the Seller to carry on its business substantially as now conducted or in any material liability on the part of the Seller or which would draw into question the validity of the Governing Agreements to which it is a party or the Mortgage Loans or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, or which would be reasonably likely to impair materially the ability of the Seller to perform under the terms of the Governing Agreements to which it is a party or the Mortgage Loans.
6. The Repurchase Agreement is effective to create, in favor of the Purchaser, either a valid sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser or a valid security interest under the Uniform Commercial Code in all of the right, title and interest of the Seller in, to and under the Mortgage Loans as collateral security for the payment of the Seller’s obligations under the Repurchase Agreement, except that (a) such security interests will continue in Mortgage
U-2
Loans after its sale, exchange or other disposition only to the extent provided in Section 9-306 of the Uniform Commercial Code, (b) the security interests in Mortgage Loans in which the Seller acquires rights after the commencement of a case under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Seller may be limited by Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code.
7. When the Mortgage Notes are delivered to the Custodian, endorsed in blank by a duly authorized officer of the Seller, the security interest referred to in Section 6 above in the Mortgage Notes will constitute a fully perfected first priority security interest in all right, title and interest of the Seller therein.
8. (a) Upon the filing of financing statements on Form UCC-1 naming the Purchaser as “Secured Party” and the Seller as “Debtor”, and describing the Mortgage Loans, in the jurisdictions and recording offices listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto, the security interests referred to in Section 6 above will constitute fully perfected security interests under the Uniform Commercial Code in all right, title and interest of the Seller in, to and under such Mortgage Loans, which can be perfected by filing under the Uniform Commercial Code, or, will demonstrate a completion of the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser.
(b) The UCC Search Report sets forth the proper filing offices and the proper debtors necessary to identify those Persons who have on file in the jurisdictions listed on Schedule 1 financing statements covering the Mortgage Loans as of the dates and times specified on Schedule 2. The UCC Search Report identifies no Person who has filed in any Filing Office a financing statement describing the Mortgage Loans prior to the effective dates of the UCC Search Report.
9. The Seller is not an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
Very truly yours,
U-3
